Legend 02-20-2010 10:16 AM

I posted in the other thread but I have to say it again here...San Antonio, Houston and Austin Camaro 5 owners are awesome!!

The wife and I always enjoy going out on Friday nights and meeting up with you guys and talking about cars, life, family...anything really! Looking at the cars too!

We headed out last night to TGIFs to do the same thing we always did...just meet up with some good folks and enjoy a night of talking and looking at cars! Man, was that the furthest thing from what actually happened!!

When we got there there was about 14 or so cars and I told my wife...this is a good turnout! But I didn't realize Ernest had been sending PMs and emails to folks to come out and celebrate me getting home! The end result was awesome to say the least!

I was speechless...honestly, floored! What a great group of folks you all are! I couldn't come up with a word to say last night...I didn't know what to say! It was an honor to be there, be apart of that gathering! It's about people, it's about caring and sharing a passion and about being good folks! Everyone was apart of that and to everyone I say thank you...thank you so much!!

It was great to catch up with those I already knew, and great to meet so, so, so, so many new owners!! My word...there were so many Camaros out there...double stacked in the road! The food was awesome too...thanks Justin!

Again all...from the bottom of my heart...thanks!! Thanks for the welcome home and I can't wait to get together again! Everyone of you are awesome...it's a great feeling to know there are such awesome folks out there and to apart of it as well...what's the saying...."priceless!"

To each of you...thank you and so proud to be apart of such a great family!!

Thanks!

Welcome Home Legend!
 
Last Friday (19 Feb 10) saw the San Antonio Camaro5 Club's celebration of the safe return of Deron (Legend) from Afghanistan.

The "event" happened at the TGI Friday's on I-10W and DeZavala...which has become our regular Friday meet location (thanks to the generous support of one of our own members, Justin #2 (bumblebee1029) who also happens to be an assistant general manager at the restaurant).

We had an amazing showing, due mostly to a "mass pm invitation" sent out by Ernest (C4). This was actually our best attended meet so far, including our Tower of the Americas photo shoot!

I believe we had as many as 36 fifth gen Camaros together at one time. Over the course of the evening, we had 39 Camaros attend (once TAG and JEWELZ finally showed up), including visitors from the H-Town Camaro Club in Houston and from Austin, too! Kyle, from Austin showed up with a procharger on his car. Along with a few other mods, that car puts down 607 RWHP -- incredible! All 10 original colors were represented, including 8 (count 'em!)...yes 8 Summit White cars, much to the pleasure of all of us (and the chagrin of Darrell (SummitSS) and Chris #1 (Attit2de)--LOL--just kidding!). :D

Justin #1 (CamaroSkooter) arranged for a great banner that we hung in the restaurant to welcome Deron home and Stefanie (Atti2dezWife) brought a rockin' cake with a picture of Deron's custom RKSport SEMA edition Camaro (which we all got to see in-person--wow, what a machine!).

Among the highlights of the evening included a few minutes where we pulled everyone into the restaurant to thank Deron, his wife Teresa, and their family for their service to our country (THANK YOU!). Chris H. from the H-Town Camaro Club presented Deron with a very cool honorary H-Town t-shirt (awesome gesture, Houston--you guys rock!). Another notable highlight...we pulled all the drivers outside to stand next to their cars with halos (or headlights for non-RS) on while Phillip (a friend of Kyle's from Austin), got up on the roof of the restaurant and took pictures of all of us parked there. :w00t:

One admin note: With help from Amy (thanks!), I provided my e-mail address to those who are not yet on our roster. For those folks, just e-mail me and I'll send out the roster for you to add your info to. Then, I'll consolidate the info from everyone into a master version to send out to everyone.

All in all, very good times were had by all...and it was exciting and just a total blast to see everyone there. Using 400 HP as an average and $30K as a conservative average vehicle price, we had better than 14,400 HP on the ground at one time and over $1.15 million on that lot Friday night! :bow:

Wow...what an event! Thanks, everyone for making it a great night! If I left anything out, just chime in if you were there!

Cheers--can't wait for next week!!!

PnCRedJwl2SS 02-21-2010 01:38 PM

Warm thanks!

My thoughts, exactly, Mike...it did my heart good to see so much gratitude and support for our military brother. As a retired Air Force guy, I'll remember it forever!

Thanks to all of you...add my personal thanks, too. It means more than you know.

Sincerely,

TAG UR IT 02-21-2010 03:20 PM

WOW.

I only wish I could have gotten there earlier. I tried. But, at least I was able to still see quite few.

Kyle, your procharged SS IS AWESOME. Dude...I'm SO jealous!:laugh:

And Legend,

It is a great pleasure to welcome you back. We appreciate all that you and the others in this great nations armed forces do for our country. You are a VERY deserving individual. (Oh yeah...and your RK Sport Camaro KICKS @SS!!!)


Thank you...and welcome home.;)

Would have loved to have been there, I just got back last year and heading off again this fall. It's good to see the community coming together like that to welcome home a hero an a fellow gen 5 owner. Mine just arrived to the dealership and has some mods
going on before I can bring her home, luckily I'm in the field now and won't be home until march 1st or 2nd. I'm up at hood but would he down for the ride.

Glad your home safe and sound, enjoy the ride!

If anyone gets a sec, pm me with dates, locations, and times of meets? I got a few gen 5 owners up here lookin to meet others!

Thanks, and again welcome home bro!
